Before I manually issue a retry command for a failed turn on thread ID 1204, what operational check should I perform to prevent duplicate retry entries?

The instructions your model reads when the skill loads.
The plugin is enabled on fresh installations. When a turn fails on a structured Codex or Claude Code subscription-window limit with a reset time, it queues the original input verbatim for after the window opens, marked agent-only.
A pending retry is an ordinary durable queued row and survives restart. Inspect
it with bb thread queue list <thread-id> and inspect the failed turn before
manually retrying it; avoid duplicating an existing queued retry.
Use the core bb thread retry command for an intentional manual retry. Follow
its live help for selection and scheduling flags.
